Actual Rating: 3.5– my rating is nothing against the MC’s at all, there was just something about his book that I knew from before I even picked up the book I didn’t think I’d like as much (and I was right). I loved Smith and Emilia on their own and together. I had no issues with the 10 year age gap. I continue to love the texts exchanges throughout the novel (they are so funny sometimes). I could see where both characters were coming from and the forbidden aspect of their “relationship” was a very fair reason. I do enjoy forbidden romances but idk what it was about this one that I just didn’t care for as much. I did think the ending was predictable in this, I guessed from the beginning what the resolution to them not being together would be. I still thought it was good, just not great for me, and will continue to read the last 2 books in the series!

I love these Carolina Comets and I love everything about the way Teagan Hunter tells their stories.
Owen Smith is just about the hottest thing on and off the ice, yes he’s 38, but he is seasoned in the best way. Two years ago he meets Emilia in a bar and their lives were drastically changed. This is a steamy forbidden romance and it checks all the boxes. We get to spend some time with some old friends and I’m absolutely here for it all.
Teagan writes books that you just love to read. They are always filled with emotion, laughter, smart banter and so much steam. I never miss a chance to read her words!

Loved it! I loved Smith and Emilia’s relationship. Another great hockey romance. Told in 1st person, dual POV, and spicy.

I wasn't vibing with it unfortunately. The leads being in love from the beginning I could have handled, but the writing also wasn't for my liking.
Not ruling out that I won't go back to it one day! But it wasn't for me at the time I picked it up
